Registration and Scheduling

Do I have to commit to the semester before my first lesson?

No! All interested students will have an intro lesson, priced at the regular rate (30 mins/$35, 45 mins/$53, 60 mins/$70), to ensure a good student-instructor match and discuss learning goals.

How do I register for lessons after my intro?

Our office manager will be in touch after your intro with registration instructions and semester tuition details. Once you have paid your intro lesson invoice, confirmed your preferred payment method, and filled out a registration form, your slot is confirmed for the semester!

Is there a registration fee?

There is a once-yearly family registration fee of $12. This will be added to your first invoice.

Can I schedule lessons every other week?

No. Students are expected to commit to weekly lessons.

How much notice do I need to give when canceling a lesson?

Regardless of notice given, all students with an absence will have the opportunity twice each semester to attend group make up classes and workshops. Lessons missed by students are not made up privately. Instructor cancelled lessons will be made up privately. You can read our full Student Policies and Procedures here.

Who do I contact when I need to cancel a lesson?

You ca contact your instructor directly - (instructor name)@midcoastmusicacademy.com. For a last minute cancellation, please email info@midcoastmusicacademy.com, or call/text 207-701-7410.

What happens if I can’t continue lessons midway through the semester?

We ask students who are discontinuing give two weeks notice in writing. You will continue to be charged for these two weeks (and you can continue attending lessons during this time).
